What a dissapointment

10/08/1999

(1 out of 5 stars)

"I bought this DVD just as soon as it was released. I am totally dissatisfied. It is a Dolby recording but the camera work is a quality of amateurs, the performance is the one you typically hear at a local church rather than something you are willing to pay to hear."
